Modern environmentally friendly designer villa in the prestigious and secure estate of El Madroñal, Benahavís

Elegantly designed and environmentally conscious contemporary villa situated in the charming El Madroñal estate in Benahavís. This residence stands out not only for its impeccable construction but also for its dedication to sustainability and efficiency.

Approaching the villa from the street, access can be gained from the upper floor, either by car or on foot, or from the floor just below through the enclosed garage for two cars, equipped with an electric charging point —an ideal feature for modern vehicles.

Let’s commence our exploration from the top floor, where we enter the house through a spacious check-in door located in the guest car park. On this floor, a large bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and partial sea views serves as a guest room or master bedroom.
Descending via the broad wooden staircase to the lower level, we unveil the main floor. Here, a generous living/dining room with a library area, varying ceiling heights, and a well-appointed gourmet kitchen with an expansive front terrace awaits. Additionally, there’s a guest toilet and another enclosed garage for two cars.

On the lower level, accessible through an elegant external wooden staircase, three complete bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms—all facing south—a multipurpose room, a laundry room, and a splendid corner porch leading to the beautiful swimming pool can be found. This level is complemented by a garden filled with native plants that, once established, require minimal water consumption.
The surprisingly spacious and naturally lit basement offers a versatile space, perfect for conversion into a cinema room, games room, gym, or any multifunctional area according to the preferences of the future owner.

Nestled on a substantial 3,000 m2 plot amidst an authentic Mediterranean forest, this house is surrounded by trees, wild shrubs, and native aromatic plants that shape the landscape. Inspired by the 70’s with contemporary touches, the wooden structure from northern Spain and natural Portuguese cork used in construction ensure optimal insulation and low maintenance for both facades and roofs. The absence of furniture and decoration provides the advantage of complete customisation to the owner’s taste.

The expansive plot provides protection from the wind and delightful views from large windows overlooking surrounding hills and the sea in the background, all while being embraced by the Mediterranean’s scent and light.

Every aspect of its construction reflects ecological and sustainable awareness. Non-polluting materials are prioritised, and the energy-efficient design ensures straightforward and cost-effective maintenance. This is a residence built to endure, offering maximum comfort without leaving a mark on the surrounding environment.

Tranquillity extends beyond the natural environment, as El Madroñal emphasises security. Burglary and squatting concerns cease to exist within its boundaries. Upon crossing them, a sense of peace and certainty pervades, reassuring you that you are in a secure place.

This house in El Madroñal is more than just a dwelling; it is an opportunity to experience the true essence of the Mediterranean: its nature, light, aroma, and tranquillity.
